    Summary of Get It Together by Jesse Watters:Troubling Tales from the Liberal Fringe - GP SUMMARY

    Introduction

    The author shares their journey as a successful cable news personality, focusing on their curiosity and semi-condescending attitude. They have been influenced by Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingraham, and Brit Hume, who have all provided valuable advice and advice. O'Reilly suggested keeping the email segment and giving viewers a window into the author's thoughts and personal life. Hannity advised being true to oneself, as the audience can tell when a story is not interesting. Carlson advised taking care of mental health and focusing on the show, family, and friends. Laura Ingraham highlighted the challenge of covering the same story from different angles, emphasizing the importance of being an original thinker and being creative. Brit Hume advised not to sleep with his assistant, and the author cast a wide net inside and outside Fox, including Bob Costas, Bret Baier, Steve Doocy, Anthony Scaramucci, Mark Levin, and Greg Gutfeld.

    After the launch of Jesse Watters Primetime, the author achieved great ratings, ranking number three in all of cable news. The author's busy schedule includes working, co-hosting The Five, hosting Primetime, and balancing work and personal life.

    The narrator's back breaks, and he is unable to walk or stand. His wife calls 911, and paramedics take him to the ER. The paramedic reveals that the scene was chaotic, with people moving around in the dead man's cell. The narrator is taken to the hospital, where he is numb and narcotics are used to numb the pain. A hostile homeless woman makes a scene, demanding a shower and a shower. The woman falls off the toilet and hits her head, bleeding. The narrator needs a private room, and the doctor doesn't believe him.

    An MRI results in a severely herniated disc, and an epidural shot is given. The narrator goes back to work, but struggles to get in and out of a car. He sees a surgeon, who tells him that he needs surgery right away due to losing sensation in his Achilles and strength in his right leg. The doctor warns him that he cannot risk riding a train to DC, as it could paralyze him.

    The doctor explains that sitting is the new smoking, and humans aren't designed to sit all day. The narrator's office chair, a crooked Chesterfield executive swivel desk chair, is causing the back injury. The narrator's assistant Johnny assembles the chair, which blows out his back, causing him to avoid sleeping with his assistant.

    The author, Watters, had a microdiscectomy and was out of work for two weeks. After five months of recovery, Watters changed his lifestyle and became more aware of other people's pain. He interviewed out-of-the-mainstream Americans and found that their maverick ideology was rooted in personal struggle. Formative experiences in their youth played a significant role in shaping their political beliefs.

    Many of the characters interviewed had chaotic childhoods, leading to psychological reasons for their beliefs. Sociopathic parents are creating a strange generation, with children being traumatized and spit out into adulthood. This traumatization leads to a reaction to what they experienced growing up, such as drug addiction, sex addiction, and societal issues.

    The author found that people join movements not always because the movement makes logical sense, but often because they want attention. The book examines why people believe humans are going extinct this century, and what makes them believe it.

    The book covers a range of individuals, from true believers to larks, attention whores, and academic nihilists. Abuse runs through most of them, psychic and emotional. A lack of respect for others is often justified, and some don't respect themselves.

    The author discovered that people have issues, and these issues are getting bigger and crazier due to the internet and political correctness. People project their problems onto the rest of society, making them their own problems. They do not need a social revolution because someone has personal problems, and they cannot pay the price for their suffering. To fix their problems, Watters suggests being better than their parents, which is easy for most people.

    The Open Borders Professor

    Open borders activist Joe Carens, a political philosopher at the University of Toronto, argues that borders should generally be open and people should be free to leave their country of origin and settle wherever they choose. He believes that the concept of borders is fundamentally unfair and that we have a responsibility to transform it. Carens's political philosophy is based on a oneworldism reminiscent of the 1960s hippie movements. He believes that we are all vulnerable in various ways and that the world is not fair to everybody.

    Joe's dream is a goo-goo oneworldism à la hippie movements of the 1960s. He believes that life isn't fair in nature, sports, business, or anything. He believes that we have a responsibility to transform it and that the life's not fair slogan depends on how that is used. He believes that when it comes to fairness, it depends on what one means by political philosophy and what does not actually exist.

    Carens's approach to open borders is not putting America First, as unchecked illegal immigration is not fair to American workers or taxpayers. Instead, he focuses on what's fair to the American people, not what's fair to the world. By focusing on the American people, Carens aims to create a more just and equitable world.

    Joe, a political science professor, argues for a world without borders by appealing to American values. He believes that the values of America, which exist within borders, are the basis for a world without borders. However, Joe also plays the blame game, claiming that a just world would solve immigration problems. He believes that most people would prefer to live in their communities, and that if they did, they should have the legal right to claim different citizenship.

    Joe's ideal world is one where people born in different countries stay put, with no integration. He believes that if it's impossible and detrimental to American prosperity, why should America prioritize making life fair and equal in every other country? He also questions whether America's own citizens would support this idea, as he is a political theorist and not focusing on public policy debates.

    Joe's expertise lies in philosophy, and he believes that restructuring the world to make things more fair is outside his area of expertise. He argues that if America puts its citizens on the back burner and tries to make life fair and equal in every other country, it would be a different world.

    Joe, an Ivy League-educated professor, is adamant about the need to address climate change, racism, and income inequality. He believes that American taxpayers should pay for housing, food, and college tuition for foreigners in foreign countries. However, he acknowledges that abolition of borders is not a solution to the problems of the world and that a plan for implementation requires engagement with reality. Joe's detachment from reality is purposeful, as he believes that focusing on what's possible in the world is not the best approach.

    When asked about the top three issues he is tackling, Joe focuses on climate change, racism, gender equality, and sexuality. He wants same-sex relationships to be acceptable worldwide, and he wants capitalism to benefit poor countries. However, he is disappointed that he has not shown a workable plan to solve these problems. Democrat politicians are heavily influenced by professors like Joe, who point in the direction of fairness and virtue without a workable plan to get there.

    Joe's role as a privileged person is to help the vulnerable, but his reliance on a privileged position and lack of a workable plan makes him a potential target for Democrat politicians.

    Joe, an Ivy League-educated, straight, white male, tenured professor living in North America, admits to feeling guilty about his white privilege. He is deeply committed to gender equality and sees racism in academic life in various ways. Joe is an ally of a professor who identifies as a person of color on a tenure track, but he is not doing much in his own life to fight injustice.

    Joe's guiding principle is fairness, and he longs for a world that is just or fair. He believes that if we find
